Annual Holiday Parade

We host our annual Holiday Parade on the first Saturday of December every year. This event is a super sweet celebration of our community and the holiday season. This Main Street romp is entering it’s 38th year.

For a long time, our Holiday Parade was managed by dedicated volunteers in partnership with  Town Departments. In order to ensure safety and continuity, the Town now oversees every aspect of the parade, relying on a dedicated group of volunteers for planning and day-of support. Register to participate in the 2025 Holiday Parade: CLICK HERE.

Weaverville’s annual Holiday Parade will take place on Saturday, December 6th, at 11am, kicking off from the SECU parking lot on N. Main Street. 

Every parade entry has submitted an online application and fee, and attended a required safety meeting.
